You can take public transport to within about 10k of the sanctuary, but after that you need to arrange a car. We found it extremely easy to reserve an Uber to pick us up at the sanctuary at the end of the tour, and to get an Uber from Frankston or Cranbourne stations (either one is the closest - they are on separate train limes).

Has anyone visited this place then it rained? It will rain on tomorrow’s forecast and we are already booked :(
